Hello,

Before I post a message about throughput.

You can change three variables :

"Read block transfer time, and Write block transfer time" in "Buses"
configuration block.

"Bulk sector transfer time" in "Controllers" configuration block.

"Bulk sector transfer time" in "**.diskspecs" file.

The minimum of them determines the throughput of the disk, you can have
a try.
